  • What do you guys think?

    Ok what do you guys think of spawn killing? Particularly, with panzerfausts or flamethrowers? I'm all pumped about going out and completing the objective and I bet the other 3 people that spawned with me are too. Unfortenatly for us, there is a guy with a panzer hidden in a place where we can't really see him, but he can see us and then as soon as we run out of spawn we're suddenly turned into millions of tiny pieces and ribbons of flesh...

    Ok this has happened alot to me today while I was playing on Fragquest Enemy Territory, mainly by one guy, but still its annoying. But this also happens to me on other servers by toher people. On Gold Rush (when I'm Axis) they'll gather up at the hallway by the command center and shoot us as we come out of the door, or at the second spawn they'll shoot down into it from by the truck barrier. Then at the Oasis, at the second spawn, they'll get up on the walkway along the wall or on the awning over-hanging the spawn and shoot us as we run out.

    I find this incredibly cheap, and unfair. If we're constantly being killed at spawn how in the world can we do anything? Much less how can it be fun for the other team if all they do is cake walk over us and have the tank in Gold Rush down by the second barrier with 18 minutes to spare?

    Am I overly sensitive, or does anyone else agree that this is lame? Is there anything I can do about this? Please help me.

    Your faithful servent,
    Mirage


    Edit: Oh yeah, the guy I ran into today killed the whole team once, causing them to be able to blow up the North Gun and thereby winning the map, and then bragged about it.

    LOL Mirage.....I feel your pain!!! There is nothing worse than seeing a Panzer just as you spawn. The thing that I try do is bite my tongue and try to kill that certain person as many times as I can, other than that, I do not know what to tell ya.

    There's so damn many of them, maybe, just maybe my boys can stop them from gettin' the book. Yah, maybe I'm a Chinese jet pilot.

      I used to think spawn killing was bad, but now i accept it as part of the game, if your team can't get out of a spawn point they desever to get beat, usually there is more than one way out of the spawn point, also you can usually change your spawn point - the only place you can't do this is on the map with the train as axis. Then if you happen to get trapped there it just turns into a turkey shoot & is no fun for anyone...

      If the allies can get the tank down to the second barrier on gold rush with 18mins to spare, you guys really do suck and deserver to get your asses kicked. But that's only half the battle on gold rush, with good defence (around the gold) you should be able to hold them off for all the rest of the game


      Mirage, don't complain once you get spawned killed - Get even!

          Although I frown up[on spawn killing, it is as my friend Doc Rocket stated, its part of the game.

          Side note:
          Nice to see someone else post around here...

            Doc while thats true, on the Rail Gun (Train Level) I do seem to recall mobile MG-42's sitting nearby where the two trams start with a clear view of the open space right in front of spawn. Then of course there was the jerk with the panzer that hid behind the door several times....

            Well granted all evidence would point to suckiness on our part I still contend that it wasn't fair due to spawn killing. Also at the Gold Rush they postioned panzers and MG-42's outside of the first spawn and shot in. To me it isn't fair, but I can also see where it would be a part of the game, a kind of siege if you will.

            I don't know, I'm split about this, thats why I thought I'd ask you guys. lol. All I know is that its my "Official ET Pet Peeve" right now.

            One thing I do do myself is (at Rail Gun) mine the path between the Allies spawn and the track switch, and I go that route to take out anyone that is manning the Gun Nest. They never know what gets 'em that way.

            Thanks Clint, thought I'd kill two birds with one stone by making this post. lol

                              U guyz said the forbidden word for "Doc" like there is a forbidden donout for mr "Homer Simpson".Simpsons



                              Btw I do dislike spawnkilling, however its part of the game, but there r places where i dont kill and thats in the spawn...I dont need to do that. I fight not only for myself but also for the tag infront of my name.
